update: use higher level wording for "crosses branches" error

When using "hg update" to update to a revision on another branch, if
the user has uncommitted changes in the working directory, hg aborts
with the following message:

  abort: crosses branches (use 'hg merge' to merge or use 'hg update
  -C' to discard changes)

If the user isn't trying to update to tip and they follow the command
examples verbatim, they would end up updating to the wrong revision.

This patch removes the command examples in favor of just telling the
user to either merge or use --clean:

  abort: crosses branches (merge branches or use --clean to discard
  changes)

hg also aborts if the user tries to use "hg update" to get to tip
(without specifying a revision) and tip is on another branch:

  abort: crosses branches (use 'hg merge' or use 'hg update -c')

This message is changed in the same fashion:

  abort: crosses branches (merge branches or use --check to force
  update)

Create a repository:

  $ mkdir t
  $ cd t
  $ hg init

Make a changeset:

  $ echo a > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m test

This command is ancient:

  $ hg history
  changeset:   0:acb14030fe0a
  tag:         tip
  user:        test
  date:        Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000
  summary:     test
  

Poke around at hashes:

  $ hg manifest --debug
  b789fdd96dc2f3bd229c1dd8eedf0fc60e2b68e3 644   a

  $ hg cat a
  a

Verify should succeed:

  $ hg verify
  checking changesets
  checking manifests
  crosschecking files in changesets and manifests
  checking files

At the end...
